La Compañía Church (Iglesia de la Compañía)

Nestled near the imposing Basilica Cathedral of Arequipa, the small yet exquisitely crafted Church of the Society of Jesus (Iglesia de la Compañía de Jesús) often goes unnoticed. Its facade, a fine example of 16th-century Spanish churrigueresque style, is intricately detailed. Inside, visitors are greeted by an elaborate altar, richly adorned with gold leaf. This Baroque gem offers a serene and visually stunning experience, making it a noteworthy stop for those exploring the historic heart of Arequipa.
